View-only access with shared files or links

Shared files and links are the Dropbox solution to email attachments. There’s one main difference between them: only people you specifically invite to a shared file can view the file, but anyone with a link can view your files, no Dropbox account required!

Regardless of if you use a shared file or link, people you share with can comment on files or download their own copy. What they can’t do is alter the original file.
